Join us in the BreakLine Arena for a conversation with John Taylor, the Mary and Robert Raymond Professor of Economics at Stanford University, and the George P. Shultz Senior Fellow in Economics at Stanford University's Hoover Institution. Professor Taylor, developed the Taylor Rule, and is widely known for his expertise in fiscal and monetary policy, and international economics.

According to Professor Taylor, monetary policy is the primary muscle behind inflation rates. In order to understand why simplicity in policy has never been more necessary, Professor Taylor discusses the Federal Reserve System (the Fed), their decision-making methods, inflation rate formulas, the macroeconomic environment in the US, and his predictions for the near future.

Professor Taylor dissects the current inflation rate in the United States, where it is heading, the roadmap of a healthy economy, and why "2%" is the number to watch.

“Simplification is becoming more and more attractive. The more that the monetary policy can focus on something simple the better.”
